    This is the Motorhead Tekken from Fuego Power, and me (David McMullan) modeling the fuel tank on it.

    Oh my, this is your work!?

    I saw this... "Tekken" (I hope that you weren't his godfather) last winter on "Alibaba" and my first comment was "Finally, something fresh and recognisable".

    Although "laicus" in domain od design, I would made beefier fairing, headlight and beak, but nevertheless, this is really nice job.

    How people from "Fuego" position this bike? Is this some sort of a two-wheeled SUV, so to speak?

    Don't be shy to tell us all about this and the rest of your projects.

    It's a dual sport and it's been tested quite thoroughly up in Tibet, there's a YouTube video or 2 of it going through the paces.

    Actually my wife is meeting with a consultant today to try to get it on to the Chinese market, looking for dealerships to collaborate with.

    I think that is a great looking bike , comfy and sturdy.
    What do you think about using a more modern watercooled engine with a four valve head. I love that old two valve but it has its limits.

    Btw while you are carving that tank , think about a tankbag sitting on there.

    Hello Zhu, I'll give your suggestion to the engine dept, I know a lot of people that would love a water cooled engine in that model, we'll have to see in the future!

    As it already has the radiator shrouds and the zs engine shares common mounts , exhaust exit angle and carb mounts, the future could easily be next week eh. Just my opinion but I have never seen the need for a single cylinder engine to have two mufflers.
    One is just as quiet and at least half as heavy, even less if its made of carbon which is a bit dearer but a good place to spend money as "weight on the ends" is just as bad on bikes as it is on yachts.

    The twin muffler thing started because the factory bikes used carbon cans and titanium fittings as you would if a huge factory was paying the bill and expecting the best bike possible.
    Then of course the latest and greatest has to be transferred to the customer bikes. On really high speed bikes it's a drag reduction sure, but on bikes with 20-30 hp weight is the over riding factor.

    Looking at this bike I see a lot of potential as a touring bike in asia and I think the rental guys will snap it up. It always seemed the cooler looking bikes went out first in Laos and Thailand. The backpackers are a bunch of cheap bastards but they want those cool selfie stick pics on facebook.

    Sorry to ramble on a bit, sitting at home with no telly.
